Hi,

I've been having problems restoring DAT backups on my system.
I'm running an Adaptec 2940 with a SCSI disk, HP DAT, and a CDROM.
The setup works fine under windoze.  I've checked all cables, and
disconnected the CDROM, but still I keep getting SCSI timeouts
which cause my system to hang.  The installation worked fine from
DAT.

Any suggestions?  Any updated 2940 drivers available?


Regards,

Gary
